After five successful years owning Jones & Sons Dalston and establishing a loyal following in a hidden location, Andy Jones is set to open a second exciting new restaurant Jones & Sons Angel in Islington on 14 June.
Jones & Sons, is a classic British restaurant & cocktail bar, founded by Andy Jones (pictured right) in 2013. Its emphasis is on well prepared honest British food of the highest quality, and artisan cocktails from around the world. His second restaurant is founded on the same winning formula, right in the heart of Angel, an opportunity that was too good to turn down.
The N16 restaurant goes out of its way to serve food that is sourced with integrity and cooked cleverly by Head Chef Kieran Hope (pictured left). He has been Head Chef at Jones & Sons from day one, having previously cooked at a number of East London culinary institutions including Bistrotheque, Le Pont de la Tour and Hix. Hope will now move to this new location in Angel, to head up the kitchen.
The offering at the new site will be similar to Dalston with brunch, lunch, bar plates, a la carte and fixed price menus. New dishes will include Iberico Pork Carpaccio, Yeast, Duck Fat Crumb, Spring Onions, Pickled Shallots; Sea Trout Liquorice Hollandaise, Jerusalem Artichoke, Grilled Watermelon and Puffed up Chocolate Candied Hazelnuts, Pistachio Ice Cream.
This new venture will include the famous Bottomless Brunch filling up weeks in advance, and their legendary Sunday roast has been featured in the Evening Standard as #7 on their list of the Top 25 restaurants for Sunday Lunch, and more recently GQ put them in the top 3 in its Sunday Lunch Guide. Menus will continue to be written seasonally and will change every six to seven weeks.
For the interior, Jones has taken inspiration from his Dalston site, with unique design elements including 1960’s Danish dining chairs, solid walnut dining tables, sourcing lights from a marine salvage specialist in Exeter and a Carrara marble bar top.
With space for 70 covers in the main restaurant and 24 on their outside private balcony, Jones & Sons Angel will offer full table service and is a grown-up departure from the clamour of Angel Central and this end of Upper Street.
